Default Extended Edelbrock intake manifold on a turbo GSR?

I was browsing around and found someone selling this manifold:




apparantly it was extended for all motor use- On a basic LSVTEC with eagle rods/SRP pistons running a drag kit would this be beneficial, or would it kill a lot of down low power? I currently have a old school skunk2 IM on it now- Thanks!

I would think it may hurt it. Eldebrock has done the research and I'm sure they considered it. Seems like they tried to make it like the performance X since the runners are longer.

then again it may not make any changes.

I already have the skunk2- If I can find a good deal on the edelbrock ill pick it up- Im not looking to make more than 500 or so anyways tops- Probably 400 on pump gas and the occasional race/e85 tune maybe once every month

skunk2 is good for mid range but dies out up top, just check out my graph, i would be willing to bet i could rev it out 500rpm more and gain 20+whp by switching

its all up to you if you want the midrange or the top end
